HILTON Mayor of the City of Redwood City Resolution awarding contract was next discussed. It was the recommendation of the City Attorney that the award be made to the lour bidder, L. C. Smith. The resolu- tion provides for the Mayor to sign the contract instead of the City Manager, as provided in the City Charter. Mr. Wilson stated that the Mayor is named under the 1913 Act. Councilman McNulty offered resolution awarding contract for con- struction work to L. C. Smith and moved its adoption, seconded by Councilman Armstrong. Under question, Councilman Werder asked if the City Attorney -had a report as to whether the Council could legally grant the contract to the second lowest bidder on -the grounds that the time limit was better. City Attorney McCarthy advised that unless a waiver was received from the low bidder and an acceptance from the next low bidder, the Council would have no right to award the contract to anyone other than the low bidder. Councilman Werder asked if it was the intention of the lots bidder, L. C. Smith to continue with his low bid. Mr. Smith replied that he intended to go ahead with the job. City Manager Blom suggested that inasmuch as there had already been a delay of sixty days on the project there might be some delay in getting the job done by July 1, 1947. He stated that the City will not have the cast iron pipe for that project until June or July. The pipe was due last October and first delayed until February. The latest report was that it will be delayed until June 25th on the 811 pipe and most of the 611 and until July 25th for the remainder of the 611 pipe. It will be impossible to complete the installing of the pipe until about September lst. Mr. Ludwig Werder was advised of the 'situation. Mr. Blom believed it. should be made clear to the bidder. Mr. Smith stated delay in material had been responsible for holding up many projects and that it would be a, matter of working the situation out so that other work could be done which would not interfere with the laying of the pipe.
